JD: There is a report out of the Middle East that the Israeli
defense force and the Russian army are on a collision course in Syria. Now we
know about the shooting down of the Russian aircraft. What about the fact that
Russia is saying don’t let it happen again and Israel saying we’re going to
defend ourselves? I mean that does look like problems ahead.

KT: This story has developed substantially since we spoke about
it last week Jimmy. The Russians have put out a formal report that
diametrically opposed what the Israeli’s have said, what the IDF said. The
Israeli’s said notably that their F-16s were already back in Israeli airspace
when the shot down of the Russian plane over Syria by Syrian air defense
missiles took place in a different part of Syria then what they had told the
Russians about when they gave them a one minute warning before the attack over
their deconfliction line. This is where they try and make sure that this kind
of incident doesn’t happen.

So the Russians are accusing Israel of bad faith, misleading
information, and negligence and that could have some serious consequences. Now
the other thing that happened last week on this story a tremendously
significant because it is a concrete fact on the ground is that the Russians
moved this electronic warfare system into Syria. This is a pretty
sophisticated jamming device that can intercept and jam satellites including
satellites used for guidance that Israel uses for guidance. It can neutralize
and jam radar, Israel’s radar. They can do all kinds of horrible things
essentially ground the Israeli air force over Syria or even make those Israeli
planes if they do come over Syria make them vulnerable to shot down either by
the Syrian air defense network or by the Russians. So this is a concrete retaliatory
measure that the Russians have taken, which is very serious and very real.

JD: Ken Timmerman with the details behind the headline that
Russia and Israel are on a collision course in Syria.

We report this information because it is setting the stage
for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

Ken’s report may be a bit premature but it will happen.
Russia and Israel will have a confrontation in the Middle East, that’s Daniel
11:40. In fact, Syria will be the first Middle Eastern nation to attack the
Jewish State. This coalition of Islamic nations will try to wipe Israel off
the face of the earth, that her name be forgotten forever, that’s Psalm 83:4.
This alignment of nations will be led by Russia, that’s found in Ezekiel 38:2.
